I think DIY projects are great but you need to make sure about two things: first, do you have enough time to finish on time? and second, can you get the help you need? If you answer yes to these two questions, then go ahead and start planning the project you choose. Where to look for ideas? I love these paper wedding decoration ideas over at Martha Stewart Weddings. Here are my top three picks:

Title: Wax Paper Wedding Dress by Lisa H-Millard- WNEPTV-16, 5:30pm
September, 2004. Newswatch 16's 5:30pm segment on Lisa H-Millard's (then Hunsinger) wedding dress made from 40 rolls of wax paper.
Here are a few essentials for my wedding, no-questions-asked:
1) The ceremony at Boldt Castle 2) A sit-down meal with food that has some class and detail 3) An open bar 4) Have a reception in the Watertown, NY/Kingston, ON area 5) Light purple as a wedding color
Unfortunately, the sit-down meal, the open bar, and the out-of-town destination will probably increase the budget the most, but I feel they are untouchable for the following reasons:
Why, oh why, a sit-down meal: I'm a very much a foodie, and so is my bf, we love going out to eat, and we both love cooking! (although my bf does most of cooking these days, :P) My wonderful bf has come up with dishes that he describes as "sirloin steaks with a mushroom and balsamic vinegar cream sauce, with a little touch of thyme and rosemary", sounding like one of the chefs on the Food Network :) So the wedding could not represent us fully if it did not have amazing food, case closed.
Why, oh why, an open bar: My bf has a heritage of Irish, Scottish, and German. In other words, he was born to drink, lol. So he family, in turn, is too. And his friends? Cheered at the last wedding we went to when the bar came back out after dinner. Yeah...the bar needs to be there XD
And the castle!?: To be honest, this is my "wow factor" for my wedding, without it, my wedding would be exactly the same as every other run-of-the-mill, church and hotel wedding. I know there are other ways of creating a "wow factor", but ladies, this is a castle we're talking about here! Wouldn't YOU want to be married at a castle if you had the chance?!? I think I've made my point.

Your lipstick, his collar.. don't bother Angel
I know exactly what goes on
When everything you'll get is
everything that you've wanted, princess
(well which would you prefer)
My finger on the trigger, or
(me face down, down across your floor)
Me face down, down across your floor
(me face down, down across your floor)
Well just so long as this thing's loaded
And will you tell all your friends
you've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin,
this all was only wishful thinkin
And will you tell all your friends
you've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin,
this all was only wishful thinkin
let's go...
Don't bother trying to explain Angel
I know exactly what goes on when you're on and
How about I'm outside of your window
(how about I'm outside of your window)
Watchin him keep the details covered
You're such a sucker (you're such a sucker)
for a sweet talker, yeah
And will you tell all your friends
you've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin,
this all was only wishful thinkin
(the only thing that I regret is that I, I never let you hold me back)
And will you tell all your friends
you've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin,
this all was only wishful thinkin
Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know you never loved me
Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know you never loved me
Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know...
Why can't I feel anything
from anyone other than you?
Why can't I feel anything
from anyone other than you?
And all of this was all your fault
And all of this
(I stay jealous)
I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason
I just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life
(she'll destroy us all before she's through
and find a way to blame somebody else)
I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason
I just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life
(she'll destroy us all before she's through
and find a way to blame somebody else)
I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason
I just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life!

What a blast it was getting to capture Travis and Amandas Engagement photographs! They are so easy going and can turn anything into a laugh! For the last photograph at the beach session, I begged tem to sit as close to the water as possible and enjoy the sunset. They trusted me that the long exposure was gonna turn out really cool. And the 5th or 6th try did turn out just as I hoped with a buttery soft shoreline washing over them! Sorry guys, I hope the wet butts were worth it.
After their San Diego beach engagement photography session we decided to take a stroll through the city and capture some more romantic shots. La Jolla was perfect for this, because of the gorgeous architecture and warm city lights. As a photographer who loves natural light I shy away from the night. But this city night engagement session really opened my mind about new possibilities. I think my favorite shot from the session was this long exposure photograph where Travis and Amanda are kissing in the middle of the street with the cars zooming past them. This wasnt photoshopped, this is straight out of the camera with a few minor adjustments to contrast and color in Adobe Lightroom.
Trav and Manda were truly meant for each other, and not just because they already have the same last name! They both have huge hearts and they both make each other smile. They are high school sweethearts and so excited to be getting married in June 2011. Travis is basically building Amanda a house and we are hoping it will be move in ready by the wedding. Knowing Trav I bet it will be done, if not we will have to call in the House Crashers from HGTV when they are on their honeymoon!

Capturing Ronnie and Camis engagement photographs at a local park in Murrieta was a real pleasure. They let me get creative with the angles, colors, effects, and really trusted me with the whole thing.
This couple has a really great love story. There is a lot behind these engagement pictures. In short, they have both helped each other get through some tough times. And through those experiences they have really come together and learned they can rely on one another.
From experience, I agree that hardship can build bonds stronger than when everything is hunky-dory! For example, on my honeymoon, we got very sick, were robbed, and the water main broke in our first hotel. Yeah, it sounds horrible but it was a fun adventure that really helped my wife and I become a strong close-nit team! I believe that God is in control and that everything happens for a reason. Maybe we don't understand it at the time, but in the end looking back everything will make sense.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy these engagement photographs
Cami and Ronnie are getting married in September! I cant wait to share their wedding photographs, Ive got some great ideas and believe it is going to be a memorable day. If you know someone looking for a friendly and artistic wedding photographer in murrieta, please feel free to refer me.
